Gullible

So Chinese people have now been dubbed gullible. Yesterday almost everyone received a text message saying there would be an earthquake at 3am this morning. Now first of all let's think about it, earthquakes can be predicted in terms of area and relative time but by relative we don't mean an exact hour of the day on a particular day. Anyways, after receiving this text message a lot of Chinese people decided it wasn't safe for their cars to be in the place they usually put them so instead they decided to put them all in a very large open area, like a park or square. If anyone got pictures of this I'd love to see some of them, I only saw some of the cars parked in the middle of nowhere this morning as I walked (in the rain) to the coffee shop I am now typing at. My friends told me some of the large squares and parks around town were filled with cars parked there. Come on people, let's use our brains! Anyways, of course, nothing happened.
